Don't Eat TOO MUCH Candies!!!!!

Ebay

I am starting to be hooked with the ebay mania..

Before, I only visit ebay to buy Smart e-load...
but last night, deng! I started browsing and even bidding!!!
So many stuff that you can buy for a cheaper price... I went and googled Apple Ipod coz I wanted to get one, then I searched for dresses, can you imagine that the bidding starts at 99 cents! then after a while, I clicked on wedding dresses! Hahahaha....So cheap!!! and so nice!!! they can also do custom made...Then I went and looked for MYMP's CDs but unfortunately, I changed my mind when I saved two of their CDs...Being a cheap shopper, I texted my boss who's in the Philippines right now to buy me their CDs.. I hope she can get all three that I asked...

Trick or treaters visited our store today... they're so cute!!!.. saw this baby girl dressed as a carrot!...Awww, how adorable!

It's my lola's birthday tomorrow! and DST will end @ midnight tonight!!!!... One hour of extra sleep! Yey!!!

A Little Bit

A LITTLE BIT

I was kinda hesitant to tell you
Should I let you know
I was never really like this before
Need I say more

Or maybe I'm confused when you are near me
I don't know what to do or I should be
There's only one thing in my mind
That's you and me

CHORUS
I'm a little bit of crazy
I'm a little bit of a fool
I'm a little bit of lonely
I'm a little bit of all
Oh, I need a cure
Just a little bit of you
And I will fall

I'm always on the run to see you
Would you allow me to
It wasn't my intention to hurt you
This feeling is true

Or maybe I'm confused when you are near me
I don't know what to do or I should be
There's only one thing in my mind
That's you and me

CHORUS
I'm a little bit of crazy
I'm a little bit of a fool
I'm a little bit of lonely
I'm a little bit of all
Oh, I need a cure
Just a little bit of you
And I will fall

What am I gonna be?

Well, what am I gonna be for Halloween????
I dunno...

I told my mom before that I'm gonna wear my lola's "Imelda Marcos dress"... You know what I mean??? the one with the puffy sleeves????? I would like to wear that then put my hair up. Actually, my lola wore that when my mom got married. It's nice that it still exists...

I bought a vampire custume 2 years ago but heck! I don't wanna wear that... I think it'll be nice if I'm gonna stick to the fairy/princess kinda thing... Hahaha!!! I'm too old for that! :p

Oh well, I'm not gonna go to any parties.. coz u know.. most girls will wear custumes but it's more on the slutty side of that custume no matter what the heck that is...Ooooppppsss.. mah bad... that's one hasty generalization... I'm just getting old for this kinda thing huh?

I bought plenty of candies yesterday...but it still isn't enough.. I'm gonna bring these to the Philippines.. coz beside Easter, Halloween is also one of the best times to buy candies....

I'm so pissed with my supervisor! I can't wait til my boss gets back from her leave of absence..he's so .... arrgh!

My nephew's gonna be here tomorrow!!!!

Scream!

I feel like screaming!

Eyes Wide Shut

Ooops....

What I mean is... my eyes as of 5 PM today is trying to shut down...
I can't and I won't let it happen again!

Last night, I was trying really hard not to fall asleep...I was supposed to study for at least a couple hours before calling it a day...but guess what happened??? Around 8 PM, I can't help it! I was so dead tired, I slept on top of my books!...

Nope, not to day... I have to finish reading the text... I have four alarm clocks around me just in case, I fall asleep...

I will blame it to the weather... I think the weather is around low 60s...

Later!

Bad Girl + Mean Girl

That's me today...
My boss/supervisor actually saw the mean girl in me. We talked for a while coz he said that he never seen me like this before...

I'm sorry! Am I supposed to be perfect???????

Heck! I'm just human like everybody else......

Today is just not my day... ONE OF THOSE DAYS!

The "talk" (I think) went well...if it is, my job will owe me some money.... great!

I have to study but me mind tells me to relax especially with this chille weather... All I want is to slip in to a warm comforter and take a very satisfying sleep....

Wishful Thinking

Lying on my back... staring at the big blue sky.....wishing something...the wish??? that's between me and God...

Most embarassing moment

I shared the story yesterday in the bangag yahoo group...

So I went to the computer lab yesterday hoping that I could print out all the journal articles I need for research project....
After browsing several articles, I finally picked the best 5. I printed one of the articles which consisted of 13 pages and it's on a PDF format. Then I walked to the printer and paid $1.30. What happen was, there was this sign right and it says "Large files such as PDFs and powerpoint will take time to print, Please be patient". Exactly how are you going to define "will take time to print". I estimated roughly 5 minutes. Guess what happened? Five minutes had passed and there were 5 students who were in line waiting for the printer to finish whatever it was printing. NOTHING!, the light keeps on blinking that it's processing but heck! not a single paper came out...The lady who looks irritated approached me and asked "Did you print a large file?" Of course, I'm not gonna deny it, I was the one who was first in line beside the printer. She left so frustrated coz I think she'll be late in her next class and she only printed one page. The line is getting longer... I was so embarassed that I left the printer and decided to come back in another 5 minutes...

I came back after 10 minutes or so hoping that all pages has been out already. Guess what???? There were only 2 pages printed and still on the process of finishing all the pending printing jobs! OMG! the line now is so long that I left the building because of the delay and trouble I did to everybody, not mentioning that they have to print their papers again and repay.

Isn't that sad? I'm really really really sorry!

Lesson learned: NEVER use the printer in the computer lab unless it's really emergency!

On the bright side, I met with my counselor today and he recommends that I attend Graduate School because he was so impressed with my academics and I really have the potential to succeed in school. I told him, I'm not sure yet but I didn't mention that I'll be attending nursing school afterwards. But it did crossed my mind to continue and get my Master's and Doctorate degree. Oh well, it's a great idea but it's not one of my priorities yet....

ETC

Life is so great isn't it????

I'm enjoying the "Who Viewed Me" feature in friendster..How I wish that all users won't know how to change their settings. Strangers viewing you profile interests me big time. It's just F-U-N!

I'm planning to buy a house in the Philippines. Last Monday, my coworker asked me if I'm interested in buying a house. I told her I am. Actually, I'll be looking for one when I get there in December if I get a chance. It's nice, coz the subdivision is located two towns away from my hometown. It's 30 minutes away from Subic. I'm gonna see how it goes and if I can afford the monthly payments. I really wanted to buy my parents a house in the Philippines so I can just send them there if they want to. I mean, I really wanted my dad to do his thing coz I know that his heart belongs in the Philippines. If things will go according to plan, I can put a check mark on this issue in three years.

My friend is recruiting me to join her on a business. We're going to sell perfumes. When she told me about this, I remembered lowlah Jary. I'm just gonna do this for fun and to have extra money for my PI trip. It's a good idea coz it'll be a great Christmas present. So to my friends residing here in the US, PM me...Name it and I have it!

Here's the case(s?)

Okay, a friend called me but unfortunately I missed her call. How did I know that she called? caller id.
Then the next day, I called her up on her celfone. No answer...
Well, tried redialling twice... no answer
Then I decided to call the number in the caller id. Still no answer...

We haven't spoke in a while. I mean we are friends coz we grew up together but you know, keeping in touch especially in the US where life is busy can be a tough one...

I sent one message through friendster...no reply...

I am not beginning to wonder...prolly, there's a bug or something... I checked out the ast she logged in.. it says, in 24 hours... So I sent another message just to check how's it going...It's been a week already, still no reply! But I checked her profile and it says again, last login in 24 hours. I also sent her a smile in friendster but I haven't got any responses at all.

What's going on????
I don't know what to do anymore....

Usually, she emails me when there's something going on, she usually tells me what's up especially if there's a problem, yet now, I'm starting to worry because that is so not her. I don't want to think negative stuff coz that's bad but I can't help it when it sometimes cross my mind...

I better tried calling her again huh? what do you think?

~~~~~~~
Ever seen My Bestfriend's Wedding? one of my favorite Julia Roberts movie...
Anyways, remember in the movie, the two were talking at the stadium, Julia tries to seduce the guy so he won't marry Cameron Diaz? In that conversation, the guy tells the girl that she used to adore her and hoping that they could be more than friends, yet Julia turned the offer down. Suddenly, she realizes that she's inlove with him but it's too late, he's engaged already.
Sometimes, there's this guy who really confesses his love to you, treats you like a precious jewel, and asks you to love him or even give him a a tiny teenie bit of chance to show you how important you are to him. On the other hand, you looked at him and put up a big sign "FRIENDS ONLY NO MORE NO LESS". He just received a big whack on the face without doing it literally. BUT, from time to time he still keeps on holding on that one day, you'll wake up and realize that he's the man your looking for.
Suddenly, you heard from a very close friend that he's dating this girl and they might be on the stage of girlfriend/boyfriend already. You go and said "Oh good for him, finally he's moving on". On the contrary, you're feeling a bit uneasy and weird. Are you jealous??? Actually, tell me, how will you define jealousy? Or is it that he's not gonna give you that much attention anymore...You are like a 1st place trophy completely forgotten when a new medal arrived. Is there a freaking meaning on what your experiencing right now? Do you really like this person more than a friend deep inside your heart and now beginning to realize how important he is to you. Is it too late to let him know about your feelings???? Oh, it's just so awkward....whatever!

Almost weekend!!!

Days have gone by so fast....

The weather here is starting to be chilly. Christmas is really just around the corner. Days are getting shorter and nights are getting longer. I'm excited coz all candies are on SALE!!!! Halloween will be up soon and for sure a LOT of kids will be hyped up! I'm not a kid but trick or treaters makes me one. A knock on the door makes me so excited to check out what custume are they wearing....

After Halloween, comes Thanksgiving...

After Thanksgiving, Christmas will come in a snap....

Just thinking about it, makes me wanna put up our Christmas tree! :D

Hmmm... prolly it'll be nice of I can make a jack-o-lantern this year, coz I haven't been to a pumpkin farm before...

Arrgh! I'm Fat!

My aunt's pressuring me to lose weight...She's been telling me to run like crazy and do weights...
I do want to shed some pounds but I feel like there's some kind of competition going on....She lost a lot of weight when she went to bootcamp then she gained again after bootcamp...She's so stressing out right now to lose weight...and so do I...
I do go to the gym at least twice a week since school started...The thing I hate though is that I've been on plateau for one month already! and I can't take it anymore...She's been telling me to increase the intensity of my workouts and see how it goes... Oh well, it's all good coz I can be really competitive...it's just that school, work, family responsibilities and gym...deng! can I have a longer day????

My whole body hurts right now. I tried running 30 minutes in speed 5, that's equivalent to 12 minutes per mile. I also adding inclination while running....I'm going crazy...Aside from that, I also freaking increase the intensity of doing the elliptical from the usual 9 to 12....

Yeah, body image in California=barbie...
Oh no!!!!

What happen to my previous post???? be happy for what you are???
I'm sorry, but I'm doing this primarily because of health and wellness...

I wish I have a gym buddy....

Runner's High

I really wanted to experience the so called "runner's high". Finally, I think I was able t experience it earlier when I was at the gym. I'm trying to increase my speed from 4.5 to an 8 by the end of this month. Gees.. losing weight is freaking hard. But yeah, I was doing 4.5 and I've been running for 25 minutes and didn't feel a thing...Wow! I'm so impressed with what I did...

I received an extraordinary compliment from my supervisor (not the Mexican guy)...The feeling was so awesome and I never even thought that he's going to tell me that. We had a long talk regarding the current condition of the store and he was asking me for suggestions how to solve the problem...

I finally finished watching Season 1 of Lois and Clark....*sigh* I'm just wondering when will I meet my "Clark"...I can so totally relate to Lois' character...

I don't feel that my entry today makes sense... Oh well...Too bad...

Stop Comparing

Stop Comparing
by Bo Sanchez

We live in a pathologically dissatisfied world. And I'm
going to tell you
why.

Because we love to compare. Go around the world and discover that people
aren't happy with their bodies. Filipinos want to be fair-complexioned
like Westerners, and so buy bleaching stuff. Westerners want to own bronzed
bodies like ours, and so purchase tanning lotions.

Those with moles have them removed, while those who don't strategically
implant beauty spots. Some people want to shed a few pounds to look like
Ally McBeal, while others want to gain some baby fat to look like Drew Barrymore.

When are we ever going to stop and simply be happy with how we look? We
live in a sick world. I tell you. And that sickness is comparisonitis.

Take a look at wealth. When we drive our old Toyota, it really suits us
fine. We feel blessed in fact when the rain pours outside and we feel
snug and cozy on its faded upholstered seats. But the moment we see our own officemate (or neighbor, or buddy, or cousin, or brother) drive his
sleek sky-blue, four-door, four-wheel-drive Rav4, we automatically feel like third class children of God. Next time we drive our bumpy, noisy, rusted,
dilapidated Toyota (notice how all the defects come out all of a
sudden?), we feel deprived, dispossessed, pariah, debased, and only a little
higher than the insects of the earth.

Listen carefully. Bill Gates' total assets are worth $60 billion. That's more than the GNP of some small countries. Tiger Woods earns $80 million simply by smiling on TV in a Nike shirt. And the stars of the sitcom Friends are paid $50,000(actually, they were paid $1M per episode when they did the last season) per episode! My point? No matter how hard you work, there'll still be some people who will be richer than you are.

And there'll be some people who will be more beautiful, have more sex appeal, have more boyfriends/girlfriends, and have more problems. Try it for once. Stop looking around. Don't compare!

Don't compare her nose with your nose.
Don't compare his wife with your wife.
Don't compare his salary with your salary.
Don't compare her breast size with your breast size (Hahaha, I do that sometimes).
Don't compare her kid's report card with your kid's report card.
Don't compare her/his cellulite deposits with your cellulite deposits (Ouch! hahahaha).

Stop comparing and start living and you'll be happier with your life.

This is crucial: The most difficult thing in the world is to be who you
are not. Pretending and trying to be someone else is the official pastime of the human race. (I don't think dogs and cats and cows and horses have
this problem). And the easiest thing in the world is to be yourself. Be happy.
Live!

There must be a reason why God made you tall or short or fat or thin or
bumpy all over.

Love who you are!

What Matters most in Life is What you Do to Others.

*sigh*

Life is good...

I don't want to start but seriously, I am on a sentimental mood today...It's just that....

Just that....

I'm not happy nor sad.... put it this way...I feel that my feeling lies in between all feelings...

I want to sing but I don't feel like singing
I want to dance like crazy but I don't feel like dancing like crazy...

It's just one of those days....
I hope to be back to normal soon....

What a shocker!

My day went well at work today...I don't know but the atmosphere was so different. I actually have no complaints (hahaha!)
Okay, probably the mood correlates with payday. Yah know, people are happy when it's pay day, right? Oh well, I've been applying all the stuff I'm learning in my Social Psychology, gees, I'm such a dork! Oh well...

The parcel came in today. It made my day even better besides the fact that the UPS guy was cute...Lucky day some people will say but for me, it's all about internal locus of control..See, there I am again using Psychology vocab...What has gotten into me????

Pay day of course means paying of bills... It's all good....

I will be attending my boss' daughter's christening on Sunday. I am one of the god parents...Another "inaanak" I got there...Perfect time for Christmas huh? Another addition to my Christmas shopping list....Early? heck no! I really start doing the listing around October so I'll know how much budget am I gonna be needing...

Life is so good!



PS> I need to get a flu shot!

Zoom..zoom.zoom

My head hurts....from studying...

Cramming is not a very effective way of studying...

I spent my whole day tomorrow studying. I had 3 tests today. It was so nerve wracking!!!!!

I thought I'm not gonna make it to my last exam...

The hard part? the results...

I don't want to see it!...I feel bad...

I need a treat or something...it's so frustrating....

Guilt that comes with shopping

You saw something.. it was on sale... I mean not an ordinary sale, but SALE SALE...You somehow consults your conscience, is it really necessary to buy this??? "Nah" said the stingy you, "Heck Yah" said the "whatever" you.

Oh well, I still bought the freaking season 1 DVD of Lois and Clark. I''ve been checking out the internet for cheaper prices but yesterday, on Target's junk mail, "SEASON 1 DVD LOIS AND CLARK for $18.00" I went crazy... the lowest price at amazon.com was 23 bucks and at Target/Walmart it is regularly priced at 45 bucks.

I've been browsing sephora.com because my D&G Light Blue evaporated already...I was hoping that it'll be on sale but I wasn't lucky...I still have plenty of body sprays from VS and Bath and Body Works, several perfumes from VS collection, and an almost 3 year old Tommy Girl perfume that still exists til now. The "whatever" me strikes again...I found a perfume site, fragrance.net. Heck! I got the biggest size they have for 48 bucks and free shipping! Regular price for the tiny bottle is around 50 bucks...I hope it's not too good to be true, I'm waiting for it in the mail.

I could be be an impulsive shopper sometime... but I love doing it from time to time... Look at it this way, I deserve to treat myself right? :P

On a side note, the new Miss International who was Ms. Philippines looks like Mirriam Quiambao...She's really pretty though I would say...

I am so dead tired...

I am... my whole body hurts...

October already???? days have gone by so fast...
I'll be in the Philippines soon...I'll be there 10:55 on December 24th...

I'm so excited!

Seriously, this is the only thing that motivates me when I feel like giving up...there's so much stress at work and keeping your cool is so impossible...some people just push out of your limits....and when I feel like screaming, all I think about is my couple of weeks vacation in the Philippines...

I've been called for several job interviews already but I'm having second thoughts on accepting it because it's kinda inappropriate (at least for me) to ask for a vacation when I've only worked for them for not even 3 months...I can leave my current job in a snap due to the "sufferings" I'm experiencing right now but I guess, I'll hold on to it until the second week of December....I think I can still tolerate it for 2 months....I decreased the number of hours I am working in a week from 32 to 24 just to give myself a break from all the crap at work, but it still feels like I am working full time because everytime I work, I usually stay for more than 8 hours....

I've been whining a lot lately... pardon me and blame we'll all just blame it my hormonal imbalance....:p

Have a good weekend!
